1 REVIEW :
If you are reading this review, i suppose you have played and completed the three previous
volumes. Now you are involved in the story and it will be too bad to not finish it. I say
this because this CD is the first where dialogues and maybe events are different if you
play with a save file or without it. Honestly if you don't have a save file with scenario 1
to 8 completed refrain to play with this game.
Well know, let's talk of volume 4.
the presentation changed a little to introduce new heroes but stays the same.
Graphically, and it will surprise no one, this game is better than CD 3. I talk only of the
decors. This time Capcom seems to have a lack of imagination. If sprites of the scenario 9
are correct it's not always the case in scenario 10 and 11. It's true that some monsters
design by Hamano are pathetic, but when Capcom draw a horrible sprite, i have found that
Hamano upgraded it. It's hard to admit ,especially for me because i hate Hamano, but it's
true.
Animations are excellent as usual and the level 4 of magics are welcome as in CD 3.
The sound has lost his quality. Since CD 4, new musics appear and they are not good. They
were so horrible that i shut down the volume of my TV. There is one voice, not a dog this
time but a baby. Really it wasn't necessary...
Controls stays the same, so they are perfect.
As usual, the interest changes but this time it's not in the good way. If you have played
with CD 3 you remember one and long story for all the game. You also remember of intense
action as in a true RPG. You can forget all of this. In scenario 9 all what surprised me is
common : you can perform level 4 of magic, create a party and the story is cool. After this
one i expected the best for scenario 10 and 11. And no...
Scenario 10 is short. Scenario 11 is the sequel of the 10 but it is to be continued. There
is no final boss. What really disappoint me is that Gomez and the other interfere too much
in the scenarios. As they are short, the new character is being played very few. I
appreciate Mamma only in scenario 11. Also i don't understand why each time we control
Gomez the progression is easy (and sometimes stupid, without surprise) and why the
progression is always hard with Elishin. In scenario 3 for example, the progression with
Gomez was excellent.
It's clear now, if you don't like the saga, you will not like CD 4. If you are a rookie in
the saga and have never played with other CD, you will not understand the story. From this
moment on, Eldorado gate is only for people already involved in the story. I don't know if
it's a good thing to do such a thing but i suppose that this fact can't be avoid. I simply
regret that scenario 11 is to be continued because i will have a lot of difficulties to
find CD 5 in store.

ADK, On the road to Eldorado.
2 WHAT HAS HAPPENED DURING CD 1, 2 & 3 :
In scenario 1, you met Gomez and help him to save Marsha from Draco. If
Gomez was the bad boy of the CD 1, he has learned how to become a better guy in the
life. His emblem is the Buffalo.
In scenario 2, you met Kanan and helped her to evolve enough to beat the
terrible Freeman. She didn't find her emblem yet and was only powered by the evil
power of the mask.
In scenario 3, you met Radia, the most sympathic character, and helped her to
free the village of the curse of her beloved father, Radigan. Her emblem is the
Fox, a strong robber.
In scenario 4, you met Bud, in a world where beast were chased by hunters. After the
death of his girlfriend, he decided to awake the power of Metanomu and killed Bubba,
hunter's chief. Unfortunately he didn't find his emblem and was probably kidnapped by
the evil force at the end of his scenario. He mutated in Bud Robot and escaped of the
town.
In scenario 5, you helped Elishin, the prince, to save her princess. Behind a poor
scenario idea was one of the best in the way of the interest. You must search a bit
for your way as in a true RPG. His emblem is the Pegasus.
In scenario 6, the best of all for the moment, we discover Ein, a robot that gained
conciousness by helping Gomez to save the Gabri (people of Terra Fortuna) from the
terrible Baku baku tribe. Ein's emblem is the Golem.
In scenario 7, Kanan disappeared. Gomez and the other look for her. They arrived in
Vanis the town of the two pisces where they found a lot of problems. Finally, Kanan
purges the evil from her body and then awakes. Her emblem is the Siren.
In scenario 8, we discovered a tortured Pamela. She has lost her memory and looks like
a robot, and even worst a puppet. After a lot of battles, she finally awakes. Her emblem
is the Wolf. The final boss was Dorine and after her death, all Vanis was free.
3 BATTLE SYSTEM AND MAGICS :
The battle system is very simple. Here are the menus when you fight :
Fight
Magic
Defense
Run
Skill
Equip
Auto
Usually the monsters hit you before you hit them cause some of the heroes are
slowest than monsters like in Cosmic Fantasy Story.
Last there is a blacksmith in some town, so you can combine two weapons of
fire to obtain a level 2 weapon of fire. It's not an obligation
to do this in CD 1, 2 and 3 but i prefer to say it now so you can decide by
your own.
After a battle you can choose which items you want sometimes. The one you
choose comes with you and the other can be found in Terra Fortuna
because there, you can store all items you have found and then give it to a
character if it's necessary.
The magic have 5 forms :
Recup : the healing spell
Heat
Ice
Leaf
Light
I'm not sure but in the manual of CD 4, Writters talk of a sixth magic, Dark.
In this CD, heroes can cast level 1,2,3 and 4 magic, the monsters will abuse of level 4
magic.
To cast a level 2 spell you must combine two magics like Ice and Ice to
create Icen.
You can cast a group magic, W ice for example is a group magic. If you
combine it with Ice or another W ice you obtain W Icen a powerful
group magic.
So far the effects change a little from CD 1 to CD 2 but not from CD 2 to CD 3, If i
except the level 4 magics used by foes. In CD 4 no news except that a level 5 exists.
You can store the combination by using the third option after a combination
"the list option". Then use the List menu after all the magics menus during a battle.
It's useful.
Last you must understand the system of battle in order to survive in the
world of Eldorado.
Heat beats Leaf
Leaf beats Ice
Ice beats Heat
One new thing, dungeons where light items are useful appear in CD 4.
That's why when you buy items, an armor or a weapon is in three different colors.
For some dungeon you must be in fire to minimize the damage and then all change the
equipment during a battle against a boss.
Once you have understand it you can play easily all fight here.
Let me finish with the light which is effective against all monsters. But even
if you find some light equipment after a battle they are not very powerful. In CD 4
you will find a lot of light items. If there were rare before, they tend to become
common.
4 WALKTHROUGH :
The action takes place in the region of Alambra. Alambra is the region of the magic, and
that's why level 4 spell have no secret for the main character of scenario 9.
CAST OF CHARACTER :
GOMEZ AND COMPAGNY...
MIMA : The main character. It's a powerful magic user and a good character.
ABBA, LUY AND ESHLEY : are the three mothers of Mima.
APPU, RICA AND HI JOE : Are the three guardians of the three demons. They can cure the
disease caused by the 3 demons.
EYJAN : He is the doctor of Alambra town. Curiously, he knows always where to go to cure
someone. Beware of him he is (a ridiculous) foe.
SKY HUNTER,GROUND PLACE AND WERP KAISER : Are three demons enclosed in ancients time in
flowers of Alambra.
SCENARIO 9 : CHILD OF THE THREE : MIMA !
Three women were walking when they heared a baby scream. Abba decides to raise the baby,
Luy and Eshley decide to help her as best as they can. They named the baby Mima and the
adventure begins 10 years later.
ALAMBRA TOWN :
Find your way to your home. Abba is ill. You must find a doctor. Go in the house just near
yours and enter in it. Before talking to Eyjan search ,near the bed, for the Cleopatra card. Then
talk to Eyjan. Follow him to the shop near. You see Gomez fighting again the three idiots
of CD 1 (beat them). Eyjan throws something to Gomez and he becomes crazy Go Go (Gomez
NPC). You need his help to go through Sakya meadow and find Appu. Appu is the only one who
can cure Abba. In town, find Panello, the little brother of Pannel and buy to him 7 bombs
for 100 senis (where you see a lot of chick). Exit of the town.
On the map, the secret area is the green tree near the mountain chain. Press start on it to
detect it and then A to go there. Take the item and exit.
SAKYA MEADOW : (fire)
ROOM 1 : Exit.
ROOM 2 : 1 item, Exit.
ROOM 3 : 2 items, Exit.
ROOM 4 : 1 item south and then exit north.
ROOM 5 : 1 item in the little tree near the cave entrance + 1 item. Save here. Exit north
first to throw a bomb in the hole. Now the light go in. Return to room 5 and enter the
small cave.
SMALL CAVE :
ROOM 1 : You find 1 orga stone + 1 chest.
ROOM 2 : You find one item here.
ROOM 3 : You see a flower. In the next scene it opens. Appu appears and then the guardian
of the guardian appears.
BOSS : GUSH (use fire * 3 on him).
After the fight Appu "joins" the team. Now return in Alambra to cure the poor Abba. Later
the flower burns and GROUND PLACE appears. he wants to kill Appu. Bantross called everyone
and then Elishin and Ein decide to fight the monster. Unfortunately they were hit by the
disease.
By the time you cure Abba, it's the turn of Eshley to be ill. Talk to Eyjan in the north
part of the town. Now you can exit to the next dungeon.
DODO DESERT : (green)
ROOM 1 : Exit.
ROOM 2 : 1 item hidden in the plant. You meet Rica but she wants you to help her. She
wants that the water falls in the lake again. But a monster doesn't allow it.
ROOM 3 : Exit.
ROOM 4 : 1 item + one magic item in the cactus.
ROOM 5 : Save here, take the chest and exit.
ROOM 6 : Take the chest here.
ROOM 7 : use a bomb on the stone dam. The water falls again but the boss appears.
BOSS : DODO (use leaf * 3 on him).
Exit and re enter in room 7. Take the orga stone here. Now return in room 2 to force Rica
to come with you. Once at home, talk to the chick (japanese call the creature a Pyoco,
because it says Pyo Pyo all the time) and it becomes Eshley. In town you meet Dinshark and
Rayfish of CD 3.
Again the demon appears, this time it is WERP KAISER. He wants Rica. Bantross sends Pamela
and Kanan to fight him but they failed. Now Luy is stoned and Eyjan says to go in Snail
cave to find Hi joe. Exit of the town.
SNAIL WATER CAVE : (ice)
This dungeon is particular, there are few rooms but each has a lot of small cave to visit. For
the moment begins to go north and forget the way that goes down at the entrance (i don't
remember if the way is here or if it appears later on the scenario).
ROOM 1 : Enter cave 1 to obtain an item. The chest is a fake so don't approach it. Enter
cave 2 and take only the chest of the right. You find one item on the way to cave 3 and one
chest inside cave 3. Exit.
ROOM 2 : Exit left to go down to a cave and take the item in it. Then go up and save. You
see 3 exits. Straight and right for items, left for the good way. Enter room 3.
ROOM 3 : Here use a bomb.
BOSS : RAYJA (use level 4 of green = leaf + leafen + Wleaf)
Talk then to Hi joe. He doesn't want to exit of here as long as Sky hunter is alive. Ok, so
continue and exit by the stairs.
ROOM 4 : Visit each cave here and collect items. You find the boss in a cave south.
BOSS : SKY HUNTER.
You will visit a cave south of the one with boss where you see a big hole. I don't find
anything about this one but maybe you can do a certain action in this scenario. Nothing
important apparently. Return to Hi joe and he comes with you to cure Eshley (answer yes).
After this event, You discover that Eyjan is a foe. Now return to Snail after you talk to
the three guardians (Appu, Rica and Hi joe). You can go down to the beach. If you go left
to the second cave you can find an item. Don't miss the orga stone on the beach. Enter the
first cave to receive your emblem : the Fairy. Take the shell and Gomez is back to normal.
When you exit you meet Radia, she explains all what happened. She joins you. Now you have
the power to cure all the three diseases caused by the three demons.
Return to Sakya to cure Elishin and Ein (you need a bomb). Ein comes with you. Go in Dodo
to help Kanan and Pamela, Ein discovers his third skill and then you cure them. Now return
in Town. Cure a guy on the left part of the town, he lets you enter and you collect a bow
in the chest. You must cure everyone in the town (don't forget the girl in 2F of the inn).
When you cure the merchant near your house he asks you to bring him back his Pyoco. Go where
there are a lot, cure them and one comes with you. Bring it to the merchant. He offers you
one of the three items : 1 : to open a special door
2 : a good item
3 : another item.
My advice is to take item 2. If you have followed my walkthrough correctly, you have 3
items of the first choice and you need exactly 3. Now you can exit to the north part of
the town. Eyjan is waiting.
BOSS : EYJAN (ridiculous sprite, Hamano has increased it) (fire)

Return in room 2, you can pass the second door and open the three special door. Now return

ADK, on the road to Eldorado.
5 RETURN TO TERRA FORTUNA :
It's fairly simple, at the screen where (after you load a file) you can
select a scenario, press down after the last scenario for a new choice which is :
"go to Terra Fortuna", answer yes (the dragon shines). Between each scenario, the
storyline changes and you can create a party by talking to the gabri (name of the
creature in Terra Fortuna) of the right. This Gabri is even called in CD 4 "the party Gabri".
You can have only in a party a character who received an emblem.
Since CD 3 this option is available, i hope you will appreciate it.
Another point of interest is when you go up of the main room. You arrive near 2
shops. One is for exchanging Orga Stone against an item. Every five orga stones you
receive something.
Just near is Bantross, talk to him and he explains that the next shop is the DOWNLOAD
shop. It means that you must go on the internet homepage and download the files
there. Once done come again to this shop, and choose to load your download files. You
will buy extra items that are not sell elsewhere.
Since CD 2, you can make shining an orga stone. It is in the instruction manual
but i don't know how to do this.
You can zap the end credits by pressing A button.
6 FAQS AND CREDITS :
How can i earn money ?
when you fight a bird, use magic on him before he escapes. You can also sell
the useless items and weapons.
Is there a secret scenario in this CD ?
No.
How can i be sure that the eight scenarios are synchroinized ?
On your save file you see, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 once you have completed them all.
How can i obtain all the scenarios on the same file ?
Once you have save after the end of a scenario, reload the same file to
